At the time (can't believe it, 5 years ago now) the 8 GB of RAM seemed plenty, no app was using anything close to this, and in truth I don't think individual modules came larger than 2 GB sticks anyways.

I believe this system is still plenty fast and no need to upgrade for current game playlist, maybe eventually for Star Citizen if it ever is completed, and/or VR when it matures. Besides, I just upgraded my monitor to a 27" G-Sync and loving it.

But there is this nagging doubt about the amount of RAM. Then again, I have 6 GB of vRAM so perhaps that offsets somewhat?

Constructive opinions welcome, so no need to post disparaging remarks. Some of us are on budgets...

I updated from 8GB to 16GB RAM. It's a big difference in DCS. I wasn't able to play in a wing with the new edge engine!! The rest of my games is no problem. In ARMA you need a minimum of 3GB graphic RAM with a 22" monitor!!
